FSA Consultation on Draft Guidance on Temperature Control Legislation in England, Wales and Northern Ireland

FDF has made a submission to FSA in response to its draft temperature control guidance. The draft guidance has been issued following the revocation of the Food Safety (Temperature Control) Regulations 1995, and the coming into force of the new European Hygiene Regulations on 1 January 2006. It contains advice on the types of foods that are required to be held under temperature control. It also gives guidance on the circumstances when some flexibility from the temperature control requirements is allowed. Separate guidance will be made available in Scotland, where different national legislation applies.
